This same body/lens is on eBay for $613, shipped from New Jersey.

JavvsI don't trust ebay and electronics. Especially higher end products like this. No bueno.

JavvsI saw that as well but the vendor you would be dealing with is located in Hong Kong. They just have a warehouse in New Jersey. Though Massdrop may get it from the same vendor, you're dealing with Massdrop for a return instead of the Hong Kong vendor directly. I think a small price increase may be worth dealing with Massdrop instead of a Hong Kong vendor. Perhaps I'm wrong but that's my understanding.

JavvsYea, but do you really trust someone from New Jersey?

Johnny2x4You guys are buying a $600 dollar version of the phone camera I had 6 years ago. Trust has nothing to do with the immediate mistakes here.

The S5 sensor wasnt even 1/2.5". Lenses aside, APS-C sensor will murder any smartphone sensor in every image quality area.

bossman_brianSo buy a canon 60d for a fraction of the price of this. Sorry I am sour, I just am tired of the same thing over and over from canon with a different shell.
Side note: from the looks of the specs, my dual aperture samsung s9+ that I preordered and will get in two weeks will murder this camera in every way and cost a hundred bucks more. The thing can shoot like f1.6. Camera phones now just make this stuff look like canon has been sleeping for 10 years.
Edit: I know it's a mirrorless. So this is some progress I guess, I just fear it isn't enough for them to have any sort of innovative edge in the future now that RED is making phones and Nikon is in everything. What is the role for this company? Printers? 4k was missed opportunity and they can say it's a problem with bus speeds but if a phone can do it, that shouldn't be an excuse.

smallbitOkay, I'm surprised you couldn't determine I was being sarcastic. I have no trust issues with people from New Jersey... On the other hand, your link compares a galaxy s5 to a samsung nx3000. You mistakenly think the samsung nx3000 and the canon m6, the camera we are discussing, are similar. They're not. ''I will take the high ground. This camera isn't even good, its only a couple hundred dollars. Here's an article that compares a phone to a completely different camera. Checkmate''!

Johnny2x4I have not mistakenly thunk anything. I ALWAYS think on purpose brah :P
But I also did not compare the nx3000 to the m6. I did compare the m6 to the 60d in the post after the earlier one you replied to. You should read further down the page, it will help you to make more sense to OP. I did also compare this m6 to my s9+. You should read more better.
edit: please do tell the intricate differences between one manufacturer's mirrorless camera and this one. If you say megapixels or aperture or the aps-c sensor I will lol at you and throw popcorn fair warning.
